After a busy year, I finally found time to read Nightcrawler by John Dizon. I've been a fan of Tiara (another novel of his) for quite sometime, so I was excited to read his latest. On many levels, Nightcrawler delivers. The main character, Sabrina Brooks, is a likable, strong female lead. As soon as her father dies, she's forced to leave her partying life behind and thrust into the world of business. Yet she misses her past, specifically her time as a criminal investigation student. Eventually she finds she can have it all--run a major chemical corporation, fight crime and get the handsome guy. On the way there she uncovers a terrorist plot to destroy NYC, perfidy within her own company, gets thrown from buildings and falls into the Hudson River, and makes true friends within her church community.

I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review, and overall I liked this book, mostly because Sabrina and her father's partner, Jon, are incredibly wonderful characters. However, I found the LGBT and Christian conflict to be a bit preachy at times and not something I'd expect in a crime story. Those who are a part of the LGBT community might not enjoy this story as much as some of the others by this writer. Dizon is a prolific writer and I love his dialogue as well as tough-guy characters so I can't wait to read another one of his. Fortunately, I have many to choose from!

Nightcrawler is an action-packed thriller with many surprises along the way. The story centers on a strong female character, Sabrina, a reluctant heiress to her father’s fortune. I loved her humor and good heart and the fact that she could kick a guy’s butt (or many at once) throughout the book.

The author sensitively handled the fact that it’s difficult for a woman at the top in an all-male corporate environment. Some other sensitive subjects were handled delicately, as well. No spoilers here.

The variety of characters run the gamut in this story, which makes it interesting. Without spoiling the plot, there is everything from espionage, several terrorist plots, and blackmail, just to name a few! Sabrina is at the forefront in an attempt to save innocent people and I found myself rooting for her to literally beat the living daylights out of the bad guys!

I immediately fell in love with the character, Hoyt, the handsome alpha-male blue-eyed police officer who finds himself drawn to Sabrina.

Overall, this book is a fast-paced story and could be read in a weekend. Be prepared: You’ll be taken on a wild action-filled ride!

This is the story of a young lady named Sabrina Brooks who finds her calling after the death of her father. She takes over her fathers chemical company and uses her knowledge of chemical weapons to become a vigilante intent on keeping her beloved city of New York safe. I love that she is surrounded by loving, but openly dissenting friends, as that seems to keep her honest in her pursuit of justice. Everything that the Nightstalker does has the greater good in mind. Her faith and sense of duty to her fellow man is incorporated in such a way as to compliment the story. I honestly got sucked into the book and read it in one sitting. I was genuinely disappointed when I got to the last page as I wanted the adventure to continue. I look forward to more from Mr. Dizon.

This story shows how one person can make a difference. After her father's death, Sabrina Brooks, formerly working for the police goes back to school to get her degree in chemical engineering in order to take over for him. Finding a discrepancy in some of the files she takes action.

With her knowledge of chemical warfare she designs a weaponized spray that is not detrimental to humans and only causes them to pass out. She become the Nightcrawler.

Her pursuit almost causes her to loose her life on several occasions, and receive some serious injuries on others. But she persists and saves New York City from a terrorist attack.

This is a masterfully written book and I highly recommend John Reinhard Dizon's "Nightcrawler".

Move over Batman and Spiderman, there’s a new crime fighter in town.I love to find a strong heroine in literature, and Nightcrawler did not disappoint.Sabrina Brooks is smart, tough, and beautiful (just ask her lover, NYPD undercover cop Hoyt Wexford). As a chemist and as the heiress to her father’s chemical company, she uses her talents and resources to fight an array of bad guys in her disguise as the Nightcrawler. And the bad guys soon learn it’s not easy to mess with this kick-ass heroine.I liked Sabrina from the beginning. She has a good heart with a desire to rid New York City of evil organizations and save the lives of innocent people in the process. And author Dizon had me hooked on the story from the beginning as well. This is a fast-paced thriller from beginning to end with themes and issues relevant to those we read about in our daily news feed.Dizon employs a plot technique of bringing us, the reader, back and forth in time, and ultimately it works well. There are plenty of twists in the plot to keep you guessing until the explosive ending. Hold on, Dizon is going to take you for a suspenseful, thrilling ride.

"Nightcrawler" by the prolific John Reinhard Dizon tells the story of a vigilante who runs a corporation, has a chemistry degree and stalks bad guys. You want more? Read it. Mr. Dizon has a library of books to choose from, and he's a wonderful story teller. If you like super heroes, and compelling plots, weapons of mass protection, pick up this prequel and enjoy Mr. Dizon's reveal of the new kid in town.
